Review of Kill Your Idols (2004) by Anonymous User — 11 May 2009

I WAS really enjoying this documentary until they started focusing on new bands influenced by no wave. It was about oh, thirty minutes of really interesting interviews from Lindsay, Branca, Ranaldo. Lunch! Then...The Yeah Yeah Yeahs? Liars? Fucking TERRIBLE. I actually would have turned it off but I held out hope I'd see more great early footage. The scenes with A.R.E Weapons gave me more 'Citizen Dick' moments than I thought I could handle in one sitting and I'll be making fun of that alone for the rest of the month, at least. I guess that's something.

I don't understand why they interviewed fucking Karen O for the entirety of this thing? I can't even think of one worthwhile thing she even said. I'd rather hear more from Lydia Lunch. IN FACT...everything Lydia Lunch said about the music scene now should have been the entire focus of this documentary. I give this two stars since they cut her off.
